A free flowing stream or aqua duct can be turned into a source of electricity for a villa, a small community or a large

resort.

This vortex powered hydro generator will provide a constant flow of electricity, without producing any harmful

pollutants or disturbing the local environment. As long as the water flows, you will have electricity.?Water vortex turbine extracts the rotation energy from the gigantic water vortex and powers a generator

?More than 80% turbine efficiency

?Low speed of the turbine

?No need of a fish pass

?Hydroelectric power production = zero emission

?Works at constant and variable speeds

Micro Hydro Systems

Hydro power is an old established method of energy production.

Water is captured via a filter / intake structure and passes downhill in a

pipeline to the turbine. The water exits the pipe under pressure through a

nozzle and strikes a water wheel (runner). The force of which spins the

runner which is directly coupled to an electricity generating permanent

magnet alternator or enhanced performance induction generator. The

electricity is then electronically regulated and transmitted via cable for use.

How much energy can be produced?

This depends on the water pressure and volume available. Pressure is measured in terms of "head". Head is

the vertical distance, in meters, from the water take-off point to the turbine. The volume is measured as

"flow" in litres per second. Once accurate head and flow figures are available potential energy can be

calculated. Accurate site evaluations and system design are just some of the services available to you.

How much of the creek flow should be used?

Generally speaking less than 50% of the flow at the driest time of year. This will allow water for the fish,other creatures and the environment.

What are some of the things I should look for in a Hydro site?

The greatest fall over the shortest route. It is easier and cheaper to transmit electricity than to pipe water. A

micro hydro can be situated up to 2km from the facility it is supplying. However, when systems are

designed, this distance is kept as short as possible.

A permanent water supply is needed and a turbine site that is above high water. Also look at the terrain, to

choose the best route and method of running the pipe.

The higher the flow that is available the less head is needed to produce a given amount of power, and vice

versa.

Does Micro Hydro offer value for money?

Micro hydro is the most cost-effective way of generating electricity where there is a reliable supply of water.

Maintenance is minimal and there are no fuel costs. Electricity is generated 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The average hydro electric generator costs only

one-tenth as much as a solar system of equivalentoutput.

Each site is different so civil works and pipe costs

vary tremendously. For turbine prices see 240 V AC

and Battery Charging pages. The return on your

investment is determined by how much your

electricity is costing at present, including fuel, fuel

transport costs, maintenance, reliability, capital

investment in equipment and running costs.
